Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. it is very normal for small children to have slightly warm/hot head palms and soles but if the growth of the child is proper no need to worry about the warm head palm and soles.
you have to consider it as fever only if the temperature in the armpit is 1z00°f / 37.7°c or more.
the warm head palms and soles are due to hyperdynamic circulation in these areas (that is necessary for development) which is normal.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl2 years agoA. hi
yes ,it happens
it is called hot headedness
it is common among young babies
just avoid overdressing
keep your child in well vantileted room
give plenty of breastfeeds
measure the temperature using baby friendly thermometer like Babyhug thermometer
if temperature is 100f or above please visit your pediatrician
